Colion Noir, a former Lawyer and firearm enthusiast who became an NRA spokesman after the success of his YouTube gun channel, recently caught some heat from liberal Democrats who are furious over his new NRA sponsored show which talks to youth about the Right to Bear Arms and Gun Safety.

Liberals are calling it ''Hilariously bad poser Garbage'' and seem uncomfortable with a black person being in the NRA. Some have even left him death threats and posted his mother's address online. He has also been called ''Uncle Tom'' and a skew of other racist comments all from ''Tolerant'' liberals.

So why does a black man standing up for his right to bear arms bother the ''Progressives' ' so much? It seems like they're the real racists here.

Here is the article from ThinkProgress that is demeaning Noir:

I have to say, it's one of the funniest and cutest articles from that site. So what if he wears a cap? I personally don't like hats, but that isn't the point of Colion Noir.

I am an assimilated minority, my parents are immigrants (LEGAL ones NOT illegal aliens) and liberals are very intolerant of me for being too American. I was born in the US what do they expect? Now that I live in a conservative, predominantly white area I actually no longer have to deal with this and people here seem to be like you were born here of course you're culturally American.

Nothing frightens liberals more than a conservative African American who can think for himself.

Yes this is spot on. Not only is it coming from their top level media outlets, but from their top levels of political leadership. Just a couple weeks ago Rep. James Clyburn, 3rd ranking Democrat in the US House, accused Sen. Tim Scott of not voting according to his skin color. Clyburn apparently thinks there is a black way to vote, and then there is a white way to vote.

You're never going to hear such a principle emanating from the top leadership of the GOP.

What exactly is the racist comment? Do the commenters call him a ****** (Paula Deen), say he was happy in the field (Phil Robertson), profess to know all about the negro (Cloven Bundy) or wish to prohibit them from public events (Donald Sterling)?

No they just call him an ignorant negro because he chooses to openly exercise this constitutionally protected rights. They just post his mother's street address all over the web in hopes that some leftist nut job will pay her a visit. They claim that he's not "really black" because he supports the NRA and he's an educated conservative.

Ugh.


The Think Progress article is horrible, not because of race(because it barely mentions it), but because it is just horrible research.

Think Progress' article has nothing to do with race, they arent questioning his authenticity as a black man, they were questioning the NRA attempted appeal to young people and the authenticity of Noir's coolness, not race.

So liberals should spare him because he's black? Apparently right wingers think it's inconsistent or hypocritical for liberals to criticise an NRA nut who happens to be black.
